To be Heard - Dolly Dots

All through your childhood

When growing up we all withstood

Sometimes the weight was more than we could bare

With problems so small that no-one really cared

Was it something that I didn’t learn

Did someone forget to hold me tight

All these years I didn’t breathe a word

But now I want my song to be heard

Oh how some of us got through it

And some of us forget

Some of us ask them why they do it

But life turns out that way

But the mark it left on some of us

How strange we now behave

Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird

I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard

Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird

I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard

You can’t mend broken childhood dreams

It hurts so bad in life’s mystery

Without a warning or a prayer

They find you and you can feel them there

What’s the meaning

Why the pain that goes away to come back again

Was it something that I didn’t learn

Did someone forget to hold me tight

All these years I didn’t breathe a word

But now I want my song to be heard

Oh how some of us got through it

And some of us forget

Some of us ask them why they do it

But life turns out that way

But the mark it left on some of us

How strange we now behave

Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird

I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard

Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird

I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard

Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird

I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard

Just like the silent freedom of a pure white bird

I stand here open-hearted for my song to be heard
